R devel - Sep 2010 - Bug report: Disappearing text when using a long "expression" in ylab

Hello all,
After help form Barry Rowlingson I am reporting my first bug to R-devel.
 Please be kind if I did something wrong in the reporting - and many thanks
for anyone who is reading this e-mail.


Example of the bug:

tt <-  expression(paste("test
loooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo(% of 360"
*degree,")"))
plot(1,xlab=tt,ylab=tt,main=tt)

#Now please resize the window to a smaller window to see how the text in
ylab disappears
#(but not the xlab or title.)

#This also seems to affect vertical rotated expressions:
plot(1)
text(1,1,tt,srt=90)
text(1,1,tt,srt=0)
text(1,1,tt,srt=45)
#At least on windows.
#On Linux (so Barry wrote), all the rotated texts seems to disappear.


# I wasn't able to find reference to this when searching, but maybe I failed
in looking.

# Here is my session info:
